I will never understand why Ridley's fanbase is so big and loud. He's my most wanted, but the sheer amount of discussions and arguments over him is staggering. An outsider would think Ridley is one of the most important Nintendo characters of all time based on sheer number of posts.

So they had Ridley in the Melee comercial...

Come on.

Ridley has reached memetic status tho. A shame, interesting character and pretty much a given for Metroid.

Sometimes I think he'll never get in purely because Nintendo will always keep him out so that people will keep arguing over him for when the next game is announced.

In other news, local man really feeling it.

Well, he is long overdue for a playable appearance and has absolutely no reason to be left out at this point. Of course his fanbase is huge. We also have a great sense of humor, if his memetic bigness is any indication.

What is a fandom? A miserable little pile of flame wars! 3DS FC: 0387-9377-7408 PSN ID: Raven King Sage

Well I can see where they're coming from. Metroid doesn't really have that many reps, Dark Samus is an assist trophy, and who the hell wants Adam playable? So Ridley's one of the last options. I don't think it's happening myself, but I can see where they're coming from.

You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!

Same reason everyone who wants a character in Smash complains about that character not getting in: they have a huge victim complex and believe Sakurai is directly saying "you are unworthy." by not putting their choice in.

Thankfully I'd never be that obsessed with a character!!!...

Heh, if Anthony got in instead of Ridley not only would I be very amused by it, I probably would play as him.

Of all the new elements introduced in Other M, Anthony was probably the most competently done. He wans't great or anything, but he didn't treat Samus like garbage the way everyone else did, including Samus herself.

If Adam were playable, you think his Final Smash would be to disallow others to use certain attacks?

I would like to see Anthony be playable in Smash Bros (along with Ridley), just because that's something Sakurai would do lulz. [lol]

Adam disabling all special moves would actually be a pretty cool Final Smash.

I'd take him as a 4th character after Ridley, since he is pretty important.

A future Smash might be able to do it, but it's a no-go on Smash 4.

I like transformations myself, mind you.

I think if one of the Prime 3 hunters were to appear it probably would be Rundas.

Of course Ridley is Bigger Than Jesus. He's bigger than any puny human, even God's incarnation.

"Deliver us from Samus" probably WOULD have been a better line. If I ever have reason to do the Our Ridley prayer again I'll do that.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind Anthony Higgs being playable. He's one of the few good things to salvage from Other M. I would prefer Rids get in first, though.

Here's the second page showing Shulk. It reveals some stuff about how Riki works, and a property of his vision counter. It says it that the duration of each counter gets shorter every time it's used, which would explain the difference between his two counters in his trailer. Wonder how that's gonna work exactly.
